I dont really have the money to do a tubular chassis. I already have all the suspension for it. I dont really have the means to adapt all of it over. I just want to see it there are clearance issues, with master, or the hood hinges.
and look for the thread "chassis under a 65". SN65 on there (of Stangnet fame) is looking for the best way to reinforce a '65 without going to a full tubular chassis. A lot of his ideas are very interesting and you can lift part or all of them. I think he has some sort of support going to the top of the shock towers . . . ok, just got rid of my lazy and went and got the drawing of his mock up:
might give you some ideas. He is doing a lot a la Mustangs Plus Reinforcement Kit (sheet metal) to reinforce the rockers and tie them in to subframe connectors, so imagine a much stronger structure underneath. I don't know if he's doing a full roll cage inside - these photos would suggest no.

Does any on have pictures, of a roll cages that go through the firewall, and tie into the shock towers?
